Hello. I am confused about this STR. It is included in a test case and something is preventing me from validating it.
Steps I used to verify behavior:
- Start the browser normally.
- Open a Private Browsing window.
- Open http://popuptest.com/popuptest1.html in the Private Browsing window.
Observe: the page is opened and a yellow notification bar is displayed: "Nightly prevented this site from opening 6 pop-up windows." - Click on the Options/Preferences button (from the notification bar? from the hamburger menu? and do what?)
- Stop the Private Browsing mode (close the private browsing window to remain with the non-private browsing window?)
- Do steps 3 and 4 again in the non-private browsing window.
Now the menu entry is still disabled. (Whan do you mean?)
Could you please clarify these confusions? Thanks.

What are you trying to validate? This bug is 10 years and and was fixed and verified 9 years ago.

I am validating Nightly and I stumbled upon an old test case. Help me correct it. Should it be removed?

I'm sorry, I don't understand where the STR in comment 14 originally comes from, and who wrote it and who these questions are targeted at. I also do not understand why we are trying to verify a 9 year old bug or looking at tests for it.
At any rate, years after this bug was fixed we completely rewrote private browsing mode from scratch to make it work on a per-window basis rather than it being an application-wide global mode that the user could be in or out of. The STR in comment 14 is referring to that outdated implementation. It has been enough years that I don't remember how many years it's been since I've even thought about it.
No further action of any kind (discussions/tests/QA/verification/etc) is necessary for this bug. Thanks!
